    "A local elder once gave the actual website here to the congregation from the platform, saying how easy it is to take a wrong turn."

    Hmmm...I wonder how he knew that? Bet he knows some porn sites that could make you take a wrong turn.

    Dear Governing Body members

    If you told the truth, I never would of come here! If you were open to real discussion, I would not have to stay here!

    If you really cared and taught unconditional love, 'you wouldn't hate us', you would abolish the disfellowshipping and shunning policy, that is unchristian and unloving.You would make your error's known and own up to your mistakes. You would be honest and say "we don't understand where we went wrong with the generation understanding, we apologize".

    "We have no idea where we went wrong with the 607/1914 fiasco, we apologize". "We have a major pedophile issue we are trying to correct it, our policy's were wrong, we apologize".

    Your own pride and haughtiness apostatized you from the Christ and the truth.

    I come here not to ridicule 'you', but to make absolution for the proselytizing and lies I help propagate in your name.

    Happy to know that they know we are on to their lies and deceit.

    Be afraid GB, be very afraid!

    I' m a bit puzzled by the angle taken in the OP, so please help clarify and/or answer if you can.

    Contrary to the OP title, the unnamed GB member referred only to the internet and did not actually name this very website.

    And from what he said, you deduced he was referring to this website?

    Have I got that right?

    So how's that an example of the GB mentioning this website? He could have been referring in general to any number of such websites?

    How's that different from countless other warnings from the platform about the dangers of the Internet?

    "That apostate website is right over there, and it's called "JWD", and don't look at it!"

    Each time they tell the rank and file not go someplace, or somewhere it just rouses curiosity. It's kind of like telling wolves to stay away from red meat.

    Must be quite a problem if they actually admit it's happening and even go so far as to use the word "many".

    If you'd like the name of the GB member you can PM me but I don't want to put it out there as it could give too much info about myself (I know it's a bit paranoid). Yeah, the title is a little misleading but still an interesting topic nonetheless. Plus his description really did make me think of this site, where else do people discuss, criticize, and research the JW organization all in one place? Plus he mentioned that many thought they were intellectual by doing so. Sounds like a lot of the posters here (which is good thing).
